“In Massachusetts this is the cleanest restaurant.Specially restrooms,cutlery,dishes are cleaner than all other’s restaurants in Boston area and around.And no doubt about halal option.Some other restaurants I always doubt about halal option.Only one thing I can say there’s portions a bit small.Like in biriyany they give very little portion of meat and some dishe are very little portion.They can increase portions and price“
“Delicious food!! I got the Angus Beef burger with fries. Their fries are great. Not on par with 5 guys (imo) but better than most burger places.The burger was delicious but not big enough in my opinion. You may need to order the duo or trio. You can custom add or remove toppings if you want.Plus they are halal which is also great!Overall great burger place!Vegetarian options: They have impossible burger!Dietary restrictions: Not sureParking: Enough spotsKid-friendliness: Yes; they are kid-friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Yes they are wheelchair accessible.“
“I ordered online through Uber Eats. Food is excellent. Let me tell you, when they say sliders, they are actually regular sized buns with HUGE pieces of chicken. Chicken is so big, it hangs about 2 inches outside each side of the bun. I usually get the "extra hot" seasoning, and it's pretty good for someone who likes hot stuff. BEWARE: The Reaper spice is NO JOKE. DO NOT order this if for one second you think you may not be able to handle it. It's just way too much. The jump from "Extra hot" to "Reaper" is like going from 0-120. I also get the Mac and cheese. Very very good Mac and cheese. Sandwiches come with pickles and Dave's Sauce. Excellent 10/10 ??“
“We usually order from a different Shawarma place in Somerville, but decided to give Sam's a try. The food was very good, and in good sized portions. They were good about following requests to leave things out of the wraps. Note that they do the style with fries on the side rather than in the wrap. My only complaint is that they list some, but not all, of the ingredients on their site. So if you have things you can't eat, I definitely recommend calling them to double check. My partner can't do creamy sauces, and they listed tahini sauce but not garlic sauce in the lamb/beef shawarma, which ended up being a problem. Not a huge thing, just annoying that they make it look like everything is listed when it isn't.“
“An authentic kebob odyssey in Watertown.I’ve been on a hunt for good kebob recently and stumbled upon this spot. Since Watertown is known to have some of the most authentic kebob experiences in the Greater Boston area, I had high hopes, and Roksana’s lived up to that.When I first tried their signature Koobideh, I was absolutely blown away. These minced beef kebobs were juicy, flavorful, and impeccably cooked. The addition of egg yolk brushed pita bread, coupled with the simple perfection of rice and tomatoes, made the experience even more satisfying. On my subsequent visits, I also had the lamb and beef soltanis. Beef kabob was slightly better, but both were good.In their refrigerated section, they also have some good yogurt spreads. So far, I’ve tried the eggplant and shallot spread, and although a tad more expensive, the eggplant spread definitely stood out more with its subtle smokiness.If you’re planning a visit, just make sure that you place the order via phone in advance as it might take around 20 minutes for the food to get ready. While the journey to get there might be a bit lengthy, the destination will be worth every mile traveled.“
“A must-not miss restaurant! Physically, one of the most beautiful restaurants you will find. The service and presentation were excellent. Very family friendly. The bread is baked on premise in a wood oven. It is served with an array of dipping sauces. My companion and I each had Kourma Challow with Lamb. I had that feeling of: this food is so delicious that I want to eat every morsel, but the portions are so plentiful that I can't. Helmand is delightful!“
“Silk Road has become our family's go-to spot whenever we're craving something special. We've lost count of the number of times we've dined here, but every visit feels like a new adventure.We have tried almost everything on the menu and it never disappoints. And guess what? Our kids are totally into it too! Sure, some dishes can pack a bit of heat, but just give the server a heads up.The place is limited in space and they do not take reservations so sometimes it feels like a bit of a squeeze. But hey, that's part of the charm, right? Just be prepared for a bit of a tight squeeze, especially if you're rolling in with a big crew.Overall, Silk Road gets a big thumbs up from us. Whether you're a die-hard fan of Uyghur food or just looking for a fun family outing, this place won't disappoint.“
“This place is absolutely delicious. We had the chicken Tikki masala and the naan (garlic and regular). Everything was incredible: fresh flavorful and unique. The outside looks like it is an average fast food place but nothing about the food is average. Delicious!“

“Food was really good here! They cooked the chicken very well. I've been here twice already and the staff have been friendly and patient. Never had to wait too long for the food to be served (usually 10 minutes with other customers present). Everything on the menu is halal. Parking is convenient with a garage next door that allows up to 3 hours of free parking. Will definitely be visiting again!“
“Jo's is one of the best Indian restaurants around. The service was excellent and the food was superb. The restaurant has a very warm, welcoming, serene atmosphere. I love this place! I don't understand why the ratings for this restaurant is not a lot higher, it should be a lot higher. Don't be deceived by the bad ratings and reviews. I recommend giving this place a try, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.“
“Upon entering, the aroma of exotic spices and freshly baked bread wafts through the air, awakening your senses and igniting your appetite. The décor is a fusion of modern elegance and traditional charm, with intricately designed carpets adorning the floors and soft, ambient lighting casting a golden glow over the space.But it is the menu that truly steals the show. Bursting with an array of authentic Middle Eastern dishes, each offering is a masterpiece crafted with precision and passion. Begin your culinary adventure with an assortment of mezes, from creamy hummus and smoky baba ghanoush to crispy falafel and tangy tabbouleh, each bite bursting with flavor and freshness. For the main course, prepare to be transported to the streets of Beirut or the markets of Marrakech with an array of mouthwatering options. Indulge in tender lamb kebabs, succulent shawarma, or fragrant tagines, each dish a symphony of spices and textures that dance on your palate. No Middle Eastern feast would be complete without a sweet finale, and DARNA certainly delivers on that front. From decadent kunafa dripping with honey and nuts to creamy, rose-scented rice pudding, each dessert is a celebration of indulgence and tradition.“
“My friend and I were looking for a spot to get some dinner before a Celtics game and we were walking by New York Shawarma Guys on the way to the arena and decided to go there. We were there under an hour before tip off and it wasn’t overly busy which was nice!I ordered the lamb shawarma wrap and forgot to ask for it to be spicy, but they gave me some hot sauce on the side. The wrap was made very quickly and was tasty with a good portion of lamb. It was a pretty big wrap and left me feeling full by the time I finished it. The beef in my buddy’s falafel and beef shawarma wrap had some pieces that were pretty tough, but the shawarma wraps were good overall.When I asked about the deal that I saw on a sign out front to get a drink for free when you order a Shawarma wrap, I was told that that was just for lunch but I could grab a can of soda anyway, which was really kind of them. The service was great!Hard to beat for $12 each downtown Boston! I’ll be back!“
“I found this place and based on the google I and my friends walked in and I ordered a stuffed grapes leaves, lamb shank and lamb shish kabab and roasted chicken ,one of the best roasted chicken I have ever tasted , and the food items are fresh and good .Over all it was a good experience and excellent food , I will visit again and again for the food“
“I ordered garlic bread and a large Primavera pizza, which is larger than the large pizzas at other pizzerias. The pizza came with a good amount of toppings, and the thin crust is also great! However, I would have liked the crust to be crisper. Overall, it was a good quality pizza at a reasonable price. They have a lot of options for vegetarians, which is a plus.“
“The food is good especially, Pizzas are so delicious. But need deep clean, so dirty. Bad example for other culture people when they visit (it's in downtown). The toilet faucet can be fixed for $50. Just look at YouTube and change buy yourself. Tables are so oily.“
“I placed a big order for work and everyone raved about their orders. I am a little disgusted, in myself, for inhaling my lamb shawarma roll up and not savoring the flavors more. We will definitely be ordering again. Also quick delivery and food was fresh.“
“So friendly and delicious food and tea.I wanted to try Chebakia, because I know it’s special for Ramadan and Ramadan just ended. Thankfully they had some! Super sweet. Not my favorite item.But they made unsweetened mint tea for me, and I enjoyed the chicken and beef pastries.Apparently there will be a full kitchen of foods within the next few weeks, so I’ll have to come back to try!“
“I'm addicted to this place! tastes exactly like my mom's cooking, which says a lot. Best turkish restaurant I've had in Massachusetts. there are a lot of good turkish places here actually (I've tried 5), but this once takes the prize. and very friendly service!“
“The food was utterly delicious and the person serving us was very warm and welcoming. I ordered Beef Nihari, Mutton Nihari, Mutton Kadhai, Mutton Haleem, Garlic Naan and chai. Everything was great. The meat in Mutton Kadhai could have been cooked for a little bit longer.Parking: When I went, I couldn't find parking in front of the store. However, there is a public parking lot where you can park your car close by.“
“I ordered, goat biryani, aalo paratha and chicken samosa. Everything was good, perfect seasoning, not bland but also not spicy. The food was in large portions compared to other restaurants which was nice to have.Parking: A few paid street parking spots in front of the restaurant.“
“My husband and I loooovvveee this place. Definitely go order in person and don't do the delivery through Uber eats or Postmates. It comes out to the same price if you were to just go get it in store and you get more food and mix in options to choose from.“
“Amazing food as always because it's our go food when no one wants to cook. The one time they forgot rice I called (because my son eats plain rice as his meal sometimes) and they were here with a large rice in 10min. Thank you guys! You do great.“
“I recently visited this place on my friend's suggestion. I ordered Chicken Samosa and Butter Paneer Masala and it was really amazing. The food quality is really tasty and the service is wonderful as well. It's a must try!Vegetarian options: I had Paneer Butter Masala which was really authentic.Dietary restrictions: The chef is very polite and considerate when it comes to dietary restrictions. He also considers the spice levels as per requirement.“
“Great falafel and shawarma spot in Harvard Square! Pretty reasonable prices and the service is pretty quick. The dining area downstairs is pretty dismal but there are plenty of good places to eat outside very close. This place is also open late so a great place to go late night if you need a meal. They have a pretty nice selection of drinks as well!Beware: the guy behind the counter will try to sell you on extras but I respect the hustle!“
“Absolutely love the menu ! My husband loves the lamb and I love chicken on the rice and gyros here.One suggestion though, change the pitas for gyros all the sauce leaks through when you are trying to eat the gyro and you end up messing everything with the sauce.But overall 10/10“
